I'm really starting to get tired and annoyed at all these damn fillers. I know that its to create a gap with the manga, and some of them are okay, like the Power fillers, but I just want to see the story progress already! It really starts to wear on the mind to the point that when I know a filler is next, I take my time watching it! And you guys have to admit that the reanimation jutsu is nothing more than a cop out at this point. Get on with it!! Grr!!!

Season 14 should start of with a bang. At least the manga readers out there know what's going up as soon as they finish. A moment I've been waiting for since I read it in the manga months and months ago.

I like some of them. But when you put them up against the main canon episodes they come across very half-arsed. And a whole season worth of fillers? No thaaanks.

Well that's a given, but overall fillers allow you to interact with other characters that still exist in the series that don't get a lot of face time. I find in most cases, you get to see some character development as well. So maybe they don't always hold up to the main story line, but I still enjoy them.

Oh, for sure. I completely agree with that. Fillers are needed to build a bond for characters. Characters like Rock Lee have greatly benefited from fillers. It's just I find a fair few of them rather tame and a waste of time. And now that the war has started, they have become redundant in my eyes. The bonds are there, I just wish they'd let us free so that we can enjoy this fantastic show to its fullest.

I actually like some of the fillers. But I do think there aren't enough cool fight scenes like in Part 1 fillers, those make it more interesting. I also wish they would at least use the opportunity to use some of the cool characters that don't get much screen time like Darui, Mifune, Chojuro, Kurotsuchi or Omoi (he starred in a filler once, was pretty cool).
